Multiple Enneagram Subtypes/Instincts What's a good way to type someone as an SP or SO or SX dom?

[Evo]

Is it difficult?
Is it common to mistype these?
What questions should I be asking to the person or about the person?
How can I tell the difference between all of them?

 

[acronach]

SP=career comes first
SX=love/family comes first
SO=friends come first

in a nutshell

 

[Icarus]

Instinctual variant mistypings usually result from extreme definitions, like all So variants are super-extroverted social climbers and all that.

 

[Mal12345]

SP=career comes first
SX=love/family comes first
SO=friends come first

in a nutshell

I don't think that's the nutshell at all. Your formula would work for some types but not others.

[MENTION=15799]acronach[/MENTION] wow this is kool. I had a totally different idea ha ha...So I know i'm SP dom, but then i don't know SO or SX for the second one. I've looked at descriptions but i stil can't tell

 

[Evo]

[MENTION=10849]Icarus[/MENTION] are you saying that that is one of the stereo types that SO doms are super-extroverted social climbers and all that....or are you saying that that is what they actually are?

Topics SP types might bring up in conversationt: food, dining out, dieting, nutrition, health, fitness, appearance and looks, money, savings and sales, shopping, employment, benefits, insurance, comfort, clothing, decor, interior design, strength, vitality, sickness, death, noise, discomfort, safety, security, environment, quality or durability of objects such as car, clothing, furniture, physical sciences, engineering, architecture

Topics SX types might bring up in conversation: experiences, personal likes and dislikes, emotional and mental states, excitement, elation, ecstasy, intensity, energy, attraction/repulsion, passion, connection, desire, wants and wishes, possessiveness, jealousy, beauty, attractiveness, relationships, intimacy, sex, closeness, mating, risky activities, action sports, rebelliousness (sx-first people often report having strong personal preferences)

Topics SO types might bring up in conversation: cultural and political movements and developments, popularity, popular songs books movies memes, manners, social values, societal standards, rules, guidelines, social power structures, appropriateness/inappropriateness, friendship, family, inclusion/exclusion, fashion, glamor, fame, notoriety, organizations, clubs, group divisions pertaining to nationality religion race, etc., patriotism, civic engagement, influence (so-first people sometimes refer to themselves using pronouns "we" or "us" or "our" as if they are the group)

SP=career comes first
SX=love/family comes first
SO=friends come first

in a nutshell

That would mean that Madonna, Hitler and Lady Gaga are Sp-dom...

It does not work!

 

[Mal12345]

That would mean that Madonna, Hitler and Lady Gaga are Sp-dom...

It does not work!

Translation: It does not agree with your calls on Madonna, Hitler and Lady Gaga.

But at least we agree on the fact that it does not work.

This assumes that sp-first types are interested in physical safety and security to the exclusion of all else, which I don't agree with at all. At least, that would not apply across all types. There is a concern about emotional security, for instance, which would very much apply to me.

That's the stereotype. Very few people take it to that extreme, and frankly, the ones that do might have some other motivation behind their behavior. I don't think it's a natural state of being to embody these motivations in such an extreme way... there might be some other motivator, like insecurity at play.

This is good.

If these pictures work, another way to tell Sx, So, Sp Doms is by what they look like. Sx Doms look seductive and sensual to me. Sp doms look dense, grounded. Sp-last photos look open, without barriers.

This assumes that sp-first types are interested in physical safety and security to the exclusion of all else, which I don't agree with at all. At least, that would not apply across all types. There is a concern about emotional security, for instance, which would very much apply to me.

It does not state "at the exclusion of all else". I don't know where you got this from.

All types are concerned about emotional security. Nobody likes to feel bad. This is not a good way to distinguish between the instincts.

 

[Winds of Thor]

Well I'm not quite 100% sure but,
(Figuratively, anyway)..

Sx/Sp: "My body wants to so I'm flirting, but before going any further, wait..*Instead of staying with the natural progression - changes subject*" or "Why don't we wait...later " *Repeatly makes statement /'Later' seldom comes*

Sx/So: "Let's go. We're a real thrill "

So/Sx: "When we get around to it, it's fine."

Sp/So: Because I really, really want children...alright but I'd rather not."

So/Sp: "Let's just talk."

 

[Speed Gavroche]

Sp-dom: my confort above all else
Sx-dom: intensity above all else
So-dom: enlargement above all else

 

[SilkRoad]

It does not state "at the exclusion of all else". I don't know where you got this from.

I got it from the fact that every single thing you mentioned had to do with either physical appearances, or physical security.

 

[acronach]

I don't think that's the nutshell at all. Your formula would work for some types but not others.

in hindsight, ya, this could've been phrased better.

more like
SX=your relationships determine who you are
SO=who you choose to be friends with determines who you are
SP=how well you live determines who you are

or something like that, this could probably be improved

 

[acronach]

*didn't see this got a second page*

Sp-dom: my confort above all else
Sx-dom: intensity above all else
So-dom: enlargement above all else

this is good too

These are great!

I feel like the Sp description is perhaps a little narrow but the Sx one seems pretty good. The So description is fantastic! I talk about these things all day long - not necessarily to admire them but at least to reflect on them.

That's the stereotype. Very few people take it to that extreme, and frankly, the ones that do might have some other motivation behind their behavior. I don't think it's a natural state of being to embody these motivations in such an extreme way... there might be some other motivator, like insecurity at play.

Absolutely - the instinct is about attentiveness to social aspects. You can easily be anti-social because social situations make you very nervous (I'm more along these lines).

Sp-dom: my confort above all else
Sx-dom: intensity above all else
So-dom: enlargement above all else

What do you mean by "enlargement"? Expansiveness?
